614 THE SINGING AROUND RITE. [ETH. ANN. 40. 
Indian Languages (Bull. 40, B. A. E.); and we must further note that 
in some cases either novel constructions must be assumed or that the 
table containing the pronominal terminations of the potential sub- 
junctive (§ 30) is faulty. On a couple of other occasions I have 
pointed out that this table needs to be corrected or supplemented: 
see Bull. 72, B. A. E., pp. 68, 69, and above, pp. 284, 345, 346. 
Furthermore, in some forms the potential and potential subjunctive 
coincide. For the purposes of discussion it will be assumed that 
the pronominal forms in the table are correct and that the syntactic 
points are the novelties. Paragraph 35 of the above-mentioned 
sketch should be consulted. 
(a) Condition contrary to fact, past time: present subjunctive [not 
past] in protasis, and potential subjunctive in the apodosis. 
Examples: nicenwi wi’nA pe’mite awi’ta® ne‘ckina/wii'i's*’ (574.- 
31-32) now if he had shot at me twice, he would not have angered 
me; kici’ne‘ci's in A‘ca’'A pwaiwina ima‘kata’wiyan"™™ (580.18—-19) 
that Sioux would have killed me if I had not been in the habit of 
fasting; wiwiininemena’gawai .... nA‘ku’naman?’ (606.30) I 
should have had power over you .... if I had accepted it; 
pwawi a%tci’mo'age peki’megu pai’ya'kittci we’to'ka‘a niya’w** 
(606.31-82) if I had not told him, I should have led myself in a 
very wrong way. 
(b) Condition contrary to fact, past time: present subjunctive [not 
past] in the protasis, and potential [not potential subjunctive] in the 
apodosis. 
Examples: ki'cai’wiyan"” .... awitani ki'ci'cita‘cikutagi’‘to- 
kap** (564.11) if you had finished . . . . you would have suffered; 
kigo’ me’‘tend' icikegye’tenamiwani’ toyigwe pyinuta’wiyigwe 
menwawl ‘kigo"“’ (586.26-27) you would have done rightly only if 
you had really lost something and had come to me. 
(ec) Condition contrary to fact, past time: present subjunctive in 
protasis [not past subjunctive], and wi- with the past subjunctive 
{not potential subjunctive] in the apodosis. 
Example: negu’ti ne’sa’te kwiye’n i/ni wimenwitcaga’mago™* 
(600.2-3) if you had killed exactly one, we should have eaten him 
all up with pleasure. 
(d) Condition contrary to fact, indefinite time: present subjunc- 
tive in the protasis (negative fgwi, not pwawi-), conjunctive in 
apodosis (negative agwi and -ni, not pwawi-). 
Example: a’gwi m0’‘tcl pigwa’ge pemi‘ci’'saiyane  ke'tcipe’no- 
yan", a’gwi nagi’“teinanin™ (568.18-19) if I run, not even if 
there is a forest, if I go at full speed, do I halt in my flight. 
(e) Simple condition, indefinite time, permissive potentiality: 
present subjunctive in protasis, and potential in apodosis. 
Example: icitiayigwe ... . pyito’kiigo'a (596.43) if you 
desire, you may bring it.
